Romancing the Stone

By this point in the journal, Jamey and I are as entertained by Evan and Yvonne as we are by Belgium. Jamey captures the moments.

The art museum in Belgium is awesome. We had to rush through sections or we wouldn't have finished.
Some of the surrealist paintings and sculpture that we were interested in seeing weren't on display due to a special exhibit. In particular, we were disappointed to miss out on a large portion of the James Ensor paintings. Still there was plenty to entertain.
In the religious paintings, anything referring to the temptation of Saint Anthony Daade made it worth the walk through countless depictions of crucifixion.

Wittamer is the best hot chocolate in Belgium. This is the result of an extensive search starting in Brugge and ending in Brussels.
The secret is simple. Milk was getting in the way. Wittamer's takes just enough milk to melt the chocolate and you are then ready to enjoy your 5000 calorie drink.

We set out for some Christmas shopping, but many places are closed on Sunday. So instead, we shopped for ourselves at one of the few open stores that interested us.
Stacy got me a present for our anniversary. I bought her a present yesterday, so now we've both been sufficiently prized.

Tomorrow, a miniture time travel within this time travel as Evan recreates the proposal.

Nice movie reference in the title.

Looking back, I wish I had tried to do a movie reference each day.

You did song references some of the other days, so you deserve an A for effort.
